I am not a deposed emperor of Han Dynasty

Chapter 438: I have made Liu Bing a marquis, why are you laughing at me, are you underestimating me?Are you laughing at others?

At this point, the newly promoted ministers with meritorious service were either granted the title of marquis or had their residences increased, and the excitement of the courtiers gradually calmed down.

Many people have secretly made up their minds that they will definitely perform meritorious service for the Han Dynasty and the Emperor in the future, and get this opportunity to shine on their family lintel.

Especially Nazhijinwu's happiness is both exciting and depressing.

If he had made up his mind to fall to the side of the emperor earlier, instead of letting the emperor beat him repeatedly, he would definitely be a marquis today just for the merit of annihilating the dead soldiers of the Huo family.

But there is no regret medicine in the world, now we can only wait a little longer.

Zhang Anshi saw that the matter of the title of marquis had been settled, and he immediately prepared to take out the list in his arms and prepare to report it to the emperor.

However, what happened next was beyond his expectation - the emperor didn't stop there, he actually continued to ennoble him! ?

"Well, in addition to them, I also want to confer marquisships on these two people."

The courtiers looked at each other in confusion, a little dazed. All the meritorious ministers who should be granted the title have already been granted the title. Who else in the court is worthy of being granted the title of Marquis?
Gong Sui?Wei Xian?Wei Xuancheng?
They did all have meritorious service, but they were not worthy enough to be granted the title of marquis.

As a result, many people turned their attention to Zhijinwu Anle. It seemed that only his merits were worthy of being granted the title of Marquis.

For a moment, Anle, who was somewhat depressed, immediately became excited, stretched his neck, and looked at the emperor with a dry mouth.

However, as soon as the emperor opened his mouth, Anle immediately suppressed it completely like a deflated pig's urine bubble.

Most of the courtiers in the palace were a little confused: they seemed to have never heard of these two names.

"Xuan Liu is sick and Han De comes to the palace." Liu He said these words.

"Xuan Liu is sick and Han De is coming to the palace." Fan Ke quickly stood up and shouted loudly.

Later, as the visitors shouted and sang one by one, these two names were heard from inside the hall to outside the hall.

This was the first time that the names of Liu Bingji and Han De were heard openly and openly in the front hall.

The former is just a small official who fights for food: the edict to pursue the identity of the posthumous prince has been issued, but there is no mention of Liu Bingji's existence.

The latter is just a leader of a hundred people: his extraordinary achievements have not been made public, and naturally they are unknown.

So, while waiting for them to go to the temple, many people whispered among themselves, trying to figure out the background of these two people.

However, in this front hall, there are still only a few people who recognize them.

Zhang Anshi and Bingji glanced at each other unconsciously, with a hint of panic.

Han Zeng's face was even more shocked: he had never heard Han De say that he was summoned by the emperor to participate in the imperial meeting today, and he didn't know that he could still be made a marquis.

In the complicated eyes of all the officials, Liu Bing, who was about the same age as the emperor, and Han De came to the front hall.

I felt that the eyes of most of the courtiers looking at them were still full of doubts and confusion.

Especially An Le, whose last bit of illusion was disillusioned, looked at the two of them with resentment.

These two people are so young, so how virtuous and capable are they that they can actually become marquises?Anle almost complained about the emperor in his heart.

Many people who didn't know the inside story, like An Le, kept muttering in their hearts, and some even speculated whether the emperor had any ulterior hobbies.

Just like the previous Emperor Xiaowu, he not only liked Mrs. Li, but also liked Mrs. Li's brothers.

It is not groundless that Emperor Xiaowu was a womanizer. Today, people always say that they should pursue Emperor Xiaowu. Maybe they have also learned this habit.

The courtiers had this suspicion in their minds as being disrespectful to the emperor, but it didn't hurt to think about it in their hearts.

As a result, the courtier's puzzled eyes became ambiguous, and he looked at the two young men very disrespectfully.

Even some miscellaneous doctors were eager to try, wanting to risk their lives to remonstrate, and use these two young people to gain a reputation as a critic for themselves.

Liu He clearly saw the rapidly changing atmosphere in the palace, and couldn't help but smile in his heart.

It is simply ridiculous that a villain's heart should judge a gentleman's heart.

"Well, Liu is sick. How old are you this year?"

"Weichen is seventeen this year!" Liu Bing said truthfully.

"Hande, how old are you this year?"

"The general will also be seventeen this year."

"Old General Zhao, who was the first person among the Han Dynasty to be granted the title of Marquis?" Liu He asked deliberately.

"He must be Huo Qubing, the Cavalry General. He was awarded the title of Marquis at the age of 17 and had a settlement of [-] households." Zhao Chongguo, whose beard and hair were all white, said with great respect in his words.

"Then why did Huo Qubing become a champion?" Liu He continued to ask calmly.

"In the sixth year of Yuanshuo, Huo Qubing took the post of captain of Piao Yao and followed Wei Qingbei to attack the Huns..."

"He led an army of 28 soldiers bravely and led deep into the territory, beheading [-] prisoners, including Xiongnu prime ministers, household officials and other officials."

"In addition, the soldiers also killed Shanyu's grandfather, Ruohou Chuan, and captured Shanyu's uncle Luo Gubi."

"Emperor Xiaowu praised him for his bravery in defeating the entire army, so [-] households were awarded the title of Champion Marquis."

After Zhao Chongguo finished speaking, the officials remembered Huo Qubing's reputation and achievements.

This was just the beginning of Huo Qubing's achievements, and he made many achievements later. Finally, at the age of 22, he was granted the title of "Lang Juxu" and became the Great Sima.

When he died young, Emperor Xiaowu mobilized thousands of cavalry to line up along Chang'an to Huo Qubing's tomb in the east of Maoling to bury him.

He also ordered that Huo Qubing's tomb be built to look like the Qilian Mountains to show his miraculous achievements in defeating the Huns.

When it comes to young generals, Huo Qubing is the most popular among the big men.

As a result, many courtiers were puzzled and confused. Why did the emperor mention the hussar general?Could it be that the two young men in front of me, who were not astonishing in appearance, had also accomplished extraordinary feats? It was simply unbelievable.

Under this speculation, the courtiers looked at the two men even more unkindly.

"Old General Zhao, have you ever met General Hussar?"

"I am fortunate to have seen the heroic appearance of the Hussars General." Zhao Chongguo was now sixty-three years old at the time, but he was still full of respect when he mentioned Huo Qubing.

"Look at the two young men in the palace. Do they have the demeanor of a hussar general?" Liu He asked.

"This..." Zhao Chongguo was speechless for a moment and didn't know how to answer.

"Just tell the truth, I don't blame you."

"Just looking at appearance, he does have the heroic appearance of a young general, but you can't judge a person by his appearance." Zhao Chongguo said truthfully, neither humble nor arrogant.

"Good! You can't judge a book by its cover!" Liu He immediately gave Zhao Chongguo a high-five.

"Then, why do I see so much disdain on the faces of all the gentlemen?"

"Do you think that they are young, so I grant them the title of marquis, is it suspected of favoritism?" Liu He changed the subject and expressed his rebuke.

Suddenly, all the courtiers were shocked, and finally realized that they had lost their composure, and hurriedly put away the disdainful expression on their faces.

"Old General Zhao said it well, but you should not judge people by their appearance. Not only should you not judge their merit based on their heroic appearance, but you should also not be dismissive of them because of their youth."

"There are many heroes in the world of Han Dynasty, and there are always young heroes. How can you, my dear friends, despise them in your hearts just because they are young?"

Each of Liu He's three sentences was heavier than the last. When it came to the last sentence, there was a killing intent that could pierce people from his eyes.

Liu and Han are young people, so you old people despise them; then I am also a young man, do you also despise me behind my back?

The courtiers who smelled something couldn't help but tremble and quickly lowered their heads, not daring to look directly at the two young men in the palace for fear that the emperor would notice something strange about them.

For a moment, except for Zhang Anshi and a few other insiders, most people lowered their heads.

So Liu He saw a patch of gray hair: there were too many old people in the court, and new blood was needed.

"My dear friends, don't be so frightened. Just raise your heads. I don't mean to blame you."

Before they could react, Liu He spoke in an indifferent tone about the reasons why the two were granted the title of marquis.

"Liu Bingji, the grandson of Prince Ru, and my nephew, followed Su Wu and Fu Jiezi on their mission to the Western Regions. The information about Fan Mingyou and others colluding with the Huns was brought out by him at the risk of death while being pursued by hundreds of Huns cavalry. Such information Is it possible to be granted a title due to merit?"

"Han De, the son of General Hussar and the commander of the Northern Army, galloped north and south for more than [-] miles on the [-]th, and sent me back the military information of Han Zeng's headquarters, and also sent my imperial edict to Han Zeng. If it hadn't been for I'm afraid he, Fan Mingyou, has already conquered the city of Chang'an. Is it possible that he will be granted the title of Marquis for his achievements?"

In terms of the number of enemies they killed, neither Liu Bingji nor Han De could reach the title of marquis, but what they did was a key link in the fight against cholera.

Without them, perhaps cholera could have been suppressed naturally, but I wonder what twists and turns there would have been in the process.

What's more, their life experiences are special - especially Liu Bingji.

For a moment, the courtiers who lowered their heads felt even more ashamed and uneasy.

How could they, who were sitting firmly in the court, have the dignity to speculate wantonly on these soldiers who were fighting for the great men at the frontier?

For a moment, the front hall finally became quiet again, and no one spoke anymore.

"Liu Bing has been granted the title of Marquis of Haihun, with a settlement of [-] households."

"Han De was granted the title of Marquis of Yuzhang and was granted the title of Marquis of Yuzhang, with a settlement of [-] households."

Although both of them were granted the title of marquis, the emperor gave them very little food.

One is heavy and the other is light, which is reasonable, but it also means that these two young people will be used more in the future.

"Your Majesty, the dog is young and really does not deserve this reward. I would like to ask your Majesty to take back the edict!" Han Zeng quickly requested.

"I have made my decision. There is no need to say more. This is a state matter, not a family matter. Han Qing should not say any more."

"This……"

"I hope that young people in Han Dynasty can take them as role models. Everyone should be determined to make progress, and everyone should be young and vigorous..."

"If you are not vigorous, can you still be called a young man?"

Liu He made a decision again and would not allow anyone to change it.

Han Zeng did not dare to say any more, so he had to bow his head again and again to express his gratitude to the emperor on behalf of his adopted son.

Liu Bingji and Han De no longer made any delay, and simply and decisively thanked him.

At this point, the matter of becoming a marquis has finally come to an end.

The courtiers in the palace looked at the emperor, and they didn't know why it was a lot more complicated.

They didn't expect that this seemingly festive event would actually contain murderous intent.

For a moment, everyone felt that there was something different about the emperor, but they couldn't tell what was different.

There seems to be a little more intrigue in doing things.

As the emperor himself said, be young and energetic.

As a result, Zhang Anshi hesitated: he didn't know whether he should take out the list in his arms.
